| Obverse description | The central vignette presents an intaglio-rendered Latvian traditional rural homestead — a thatched-roof log farmhouse flanked by a mature deciduous tree — set against a fine guilloche underprint in olive and brown tones. A large numeral '20' appears at lower left with latent image security patterning, while the denomination legend 'DIVDESMIT LATU' runs along the bottom margin above the issuer name 'LATVIJAS BANKA' and a facsimile signature. The bank title 'LATVIJAS BANKAS NAUDAS ZĪME' is inscribed across the upper portion, with alphanumeric serial numbers printed in red at upper centre and lower right. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is dominated by a complex geometric vignette abstractly representing a traditional Latvian ornamented woven linen textile, rendered in interlocking rectangular guilloche patterns in shades of brown, olive, and gold. A vertical iridescent security thread with microprinting is embedded near the centre, and the Latvian state coat of arms appears at lower right alongside the issue year. The inscription 'DIVDESMIT LATU' is placed at upper left with a copyright notice, and 'LATVIJAS BANKAS NAUDAS ZĪME' appears at lower centre. |
